    Very nice museum , worth a quick visit, in display Goya's print and Sargadelos China collection. Has a good collection that covers Flemish to Galician painters, even a large format Sorolla. Entrance is free, so like I said even just to enjoy the building is worth a quick visit. Well adapted for handicapped

    An amazing collection of great art! What a gem and I bet many people don't even know it is here. Very well curated and each piece is well lit unlike so many other museums. It is a must see gallery of art and right up there with the best Spain has to offer.

    Pleased I could get in a visit on a Sunday. Thought I needed a couple of hours but managed to visit in about an hour. Bonus as it was free entry. All descriptions in Spanish and QR codes takes you to webpage that can be translated. But the audio guide for highlighted pieces are in Spanish. Enjoyed the ground and top floor exhibitions most which had the sculptures and modern art respectively. Lovely to see several artists present drawing the sculptures. Staff are helpful. Lockers available plus umbrella stand which you can secure your brolly. Has a tiny shop with merchandise and art postcards, umbrellas, and bookmarks etc. for sale. Toilets were pristine.

    I love this museum. Very nice building, modern, well organised and very clean. Great art! Staff is very friendly. And it's only 3.50 euros.

    I took my children to see an exhibition on Sunday here. The exhibition was well curated and blended in the old with the new. My huge disapointment though was how several members of staff reacted to my children being there. I have to say that one was very sweet, but two of them shouted very loudly at them several times and followed us around the exhibits. My children are not unruley but, as all 4 year olds they speak loudly and run a little bit. There were no activities for them to do to keep them occupied. No-one tried to explain anything to them. I think it is such a pity that they are not welcomed and actually discouraged. I came away feeling very disheartened.

    Ein schöner Ort an einem Regentag. Freier Eintritt. Viele Werke aus dem Depot des Prado. Klassiker und moderne Kunst zum Teil abwechselnd gehängt. Schöne Architektur.

    Well worth a visit. Free entry, interior collection of old and modern. The architect of the inside of the building is also interesting. Clean toilets and also a gift shop.

    This museum offers free entry and is well worth a visit. There are exhibitions over 3 floors, accessible by lifts. There are some really impressive artworks here by some notable Spanish artists and some modern art pieces too. At the time we visited the Goya exhibit was closed, which was a shame - but it should be open again soon. We spent a pleasant hour or so here - recommended.

    Clickbait Goya, but free, meh

  • 4/5 Michael O. 5 years ago on Google
    Good gallery with a range of Galician and Spanish art. The Goya material is not for the squemish.

  • 4/5 Graham G. 2 years ago on Google
    The Museo de Bellas Artes de Coruña is about 10 minutes walk from the Cruise Terminal. The majority of it is in a modern purpose built structure within the old walls of a Capuchin Sisters Convent. Entry was free of charge. The museum has a large room devoted to engravings by Goya, but there are galleries on three floors displaying Spanish and European paintings from the 16th to the 20th centuries, and Galician painting from the 19th and 20th centuries. It includes paintings by Rubens, Van Dyke, Sotomayor and Pascual, amongst many others. It has a partnership with the Prado museum in Madrid and some of the paintings are on loan from the Prado. The galleries are spacious and the exhibits are well lit. Allow a couple of hours to see everything, longer if you want to study the paintings in detail. Certainly worth a visit if you are in Coruña.

    Intersting to see, not too big but perfect if you like Spanish art.

👍👍 One of the best parks in the city. There are many locations within it to rest, have a barbeque, sunbathe or do the exercises. A strong smell of eucalyptus makes the experience absolutely unique and astonishing. I would definitely recommend it.
